THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: SUNDAY. OCTOBER 22, 1876—SIXTEEN PAGE of the County Wextord, THE CITY. GENERAL NEWS. Robert B. Smith, Grand Sovereign of the 3rand Imperial Council Knights of the Red Sross of Constantine, is stopping &t the Grand Pacitics The Free Employment Bureau, 145 Fifthrave- nuc, in charge of the Young Men's Christian Association, furnishes employers with book- keepers, ship ping-clerks, and porters. The temperature yesterday, as observed by Mauasse, optician, 88 Madison street (TniBONE was at $a.m., 55 degrees; 102 m., 2; 3p. 1., 64; Sp.m., 60. Barom- eter at 5 3. m., 24525 § p. m., 20.65. Cororner Dictzsch yesterday held an inquest Gimmer. who dropped suddenly ing while cating in the bouse aderbergy, No. 30 String street. was the verdict rendered. -day morning Peter Schal- wiacr, ¢ tate street, was badly bitten wout tire legs by a rabid doyr. After biting sev- sal otiier curs the animal came-to a timely end & the point of Oflicer Lyckburg’s revolver. The Njursd man's wounds were dressed at onee; and 2€ is cow pronounced out of dauger. One of the most interesting sights of el ection nizht is to sce a smiling Democeret consult the table of postal rates or of the arrival and depar- ture of trains, and then observe, cheerily, to that part of the universe in his immediate vi- cinity: I tell you, boys, we'se got ‘em this timc! Look low them returns is rolling in solid from the back districts!™ A man who registered from Delavan, “’iid arrived at a botel in town ycswdsé and aske for a doublebedded room. “Whenll your friend be along?” asked the gentlemanly erk. «Q, Idon't expect no fricnd along,” replied the muest; *fact is I've been traveling, and kinder Liad no eleep for the last two n,ughls. and &0 I want to make up for it; you see?” At 6:15 last evening two buggies collided in front of the Palmer House, aud’ one of them, driven by Matthew Thill, ran into the State street entrance of the botel, and was totally de- Tnolished. Thill had his left arm badly broken, und sustained other severe injuries, While his companion escaped without injury, falliug un- der the buggy-box. The injured man was taken to his residence on the corner of Twelfth and Jeferson streets. He came into the hotel rotunda and paused before the clerk. *‘Mister,” he said, respect- fully, rubbing his feet’ against one another, %y I have a room in this tavern?™ *Certain- 1y, sir,” replied the clerk after Le bad written a few letters and fully discussed the political sit- uation in all its bearings with a friend; “regis- 1er, if you please,” *“No, thank ’‘ce,” replied the countryman; “I do most sll my voting down in Indiana ana we don’t have no registry law thar.” The Rev. Enowles Shaw, after a pastorate of nearly one year with the First Christian Church, corner of “Indiana avenue and Twenty-fifth street, has resigmed this charge to again enter upon his old and tried work of evangelist'in the gencral field, where he has already achieved a most enviable reputation as a suceessful laborer in the Lord’s vineyard. Resolutions expressive of their estecem were passed by the congrega- tion last Sunday morniug. e Rev. Z. W. Shepherd, of Quincy, Mich., is at present filling the pulpit. Ina very fow weeks—it may be days—that lell destroyer, the Debating Sodety, will brezk sut among us, aud young men will devote their massive minds to discussing such momentous guestions as “Is the Right of Secession Inher ent in the Constitution?” *Which wasthe greatest penius—Skaks) or Byron!” and the ¥ke. And next year the same young men will be delivering commencement orations, and, perhaps, afterwards they will go to Congress. On the whole, Mr. Poland’s gag-Ta, if properly applied, would be a most yaluable addition to thelegal code. Farwell Hall was crowded yesterday at the da; ver-mecting, although Moody and ¢ not there to Jead. Their absence, aud the ureat sudience notwithstanding that fact, would scem to slow that the public is more futerested_in the worl because of the work’s sake than because of the men who are conduct- The meeting was led by Bishop Cheney, subject was the Sunday-school lesson y, +Simon, the Leper.” Otler prom- d cleryinen were prescut, and the exposi- ions of the lesson, ihe heartfelt prayer, the singing, were 21l traught with interest. About U time of year the clerk who wantsnafee in bis sulaiy in Junuary will do %o go aroumd amous the boys, and propose 2 subscription for a presentation to cry taking care to let the manager Luow that ke (the clerk) was the first person to moot the iden. Theeflect is usually good. Clerks cannot be too carly in the ficld, for cases are ded where, after one has given a whole ’s time {o arranging matters, a wily rival Kone to the manager and said: *“The boys ate seiting up a litle presentation for you, Lwionel; bave you any Pn:icreua-s to indicate 85 to what it stould be?”’ Prudent young men should uot allow the cider to be taken off of their apple-trees in such 1 manwer. Dr. E. C. Mitchell suiled yesterday on the Cu- narder * Parthia from Boston for Liverpool. r. Mitchell has a year’s leave of absence from the Baptist Theological Seminary of this city, and will assume, during the coming winter, the osition of Professor of Hebrew at Regents’ arl College, London. Durin% tle latter por- tion of his stay abroad, the Professor, who is Jjustly held in very high esteem by a large circle of friends here, intends to travel on the Conti- nent. He takes to Europe with him, as stu- dents under his personal care, Mr._J. D. Kings- land, son of A. W. Kiugsland, Esq., of the Nortwestern Nail Company, and Mr. red Full- cr. son of Mr. Juller of the firm of Fuller & Fuller, wholesai® drueaists of this city. ‘When Mr. Hesing gets excited over polities he somectimes allows his passions and preju- dices to zet the better of his judement. He did go yesterday in a North Side wine cellar, where he, Deputy Sheriff Korm, and a few other political experts were discussing the_situation over 8 bottle of Rudesheimer. The ‘party was a very Jloving one until the subject of Sheriff was announced. Mr. Korn renounced the idea of supporting Charley Kern, and then Mr. Hesing waxed indignant and vitu- perative epithets of more or less rigor anda progoniuu:w want of elegance werce bandied with a freedom that suggested & thorough ac- quaintance with the fine points of literature. Just as the twain were about to come to blows, friends -interfered, and once again it was an- nounced that a truce had been agreed upon. A couple of legal gentlemen who do not be- Jong to the Bar Associaticn were overheard dis- cussing s nice point the other uight. It was this: * S'pose A steals a watch, and B, the 1awyer, iscalledupon to defend him, knowingthe wath to Lave been stolen, and B geis A ac- quitted, aud A offers B the watch, should B accept the watch as_his feed” After the ques- tion bad been fully discussed, pro and con, the two legal gentiemen decided that it would be a breach of professional ctiquette to accept the watch under any circamstances. 1f A had any other mouey or property, B should freeze on to that; if De badu't, B'eould not cousistently with his character as a Jawyer and a gentleman do more than go with A to the ncarcst pawn- shop, and wait at the door while A went in and pawued it. - Extract from a new novel now in press at Milwaukee: “Presently the fair Adelgitba started up and turned her cars tremulously soutliwest-by-souiis, truc as the conscious ncedle to the pule. ¢ Methinks I hear a sound,’ she said. _ Nay, foolish child,” replied her com- panion, Rosamond, *'tis but the far-off mur- mur of the rolling mills’ *Not so, not so, lusamond, answered our herofne, ‘hearest thou not tke regular cadence of that swect cound?? ¢80 I do; now you're talking,” said Rosamond; *it sounds to iy car Bkea piledriver.’ *Pile- Griver L¢ jigmered!? archly said Adelgitha. +'Tis the light” fcotstep of my lover. He comes! Afonzo comes$ " Mir. Bentinel, of the Sothin, s Selieved tu e the author, but this is merely ceujecture hased upon internal evidence. ‘The greatest excitement prevails in'fashion- able circles at St. Louis siuce the reception of the news of tlie dissovery of a stonc slab beer- 32 the fprint of a foot twenty-six inches long on a jarm mezr Hartford, Conn. The fact 18 nuiversally received a6 additional proof of the entiquity of St. Louis, and its magmitude. “It Is, therefare, cvident,” says the Globe-Democrat et tac end of a two-olumn leader on *‘The Testimony of the Rocks,™ *that go carly as the Btone Age the City of St. Louls was as famous 85 it is now for its extensive limits aud the cu- terprise and personal symmetry of its inhab- itants. The castern boundary of our city was then, without a doubt, Lon 1sland Sound, and, £s now, the daintiest of our dames wore_sixty- five and uarters shoes. Let Chicago wince; the testimony of the rocks corroburates the Globe-Democrat * A youmg man was complaining the other day that” the bloated monopolists of the Michizan Central Raflroad Ring now came round for tick- cts before the train’ reached the end of the breakwater, whereon a bystander remarked, 4 (), that's all right, sonny.” I ro every after- noon from here u&;'fircnty{cmnd street and pever pay the Michigan Central Company noth- ing. 1t's as casy as falling off a log when yon @iy know how. I've worked if for seventeen months and mever paid acent.” The young man besought this experienced Good Samaritan to let bim know how the old thing worked, and, after some entreaty, theG ood Samaritan con- sented for and in consideration of the drinks. He took a nip of 40-cent whisky, and then, ap- proachine his mouth to the éar of his friend, said: “This is how you can go up to Twenty- second street every day and not pay the railroad company a cent. Walk!” Opinfon is pretty much divided as to what will be the populer way of making an ass of one’s eelf this winter, now that the school-book publishers have about work%e off all their old dictionaries. Quoting tournaments have been suggested; also, whistling at 2 mark, and simi- lar other athletic exercises; but it Is belieyed that the sport of giving meanings will ultimate- Iy t.rlumgr This consists in taking a page of a dictionary at random and observing how many of the words thercon the competitors can give the meaning of. Of course the unsuspecting individual wi*! be prompt in coming to the con- clusion thas he can at Ieast explain 50 per cent of the words there met with, but when he comes to test the matter practically he will be ex- tremely elad to get away with 10 per cent. If any one will take the trouble to figure out how many words there are in a Webster or a Worces- ter, and then how many words the man of aver- age education employs in speaking or writing, e will not be surprised. SMITH'S LITTLE JOKE. Smith is a man who heareth a good thing and straightway goeth his \\':}ys and eetteth it off in a uew but not improved form. For instance, he was ont with Jones the other evening, and, as the weather was alittle cool, Jones proposed that they should take something a little hot, and said” to the barkeeper: “Give mea little Oshkosh,” kindly explaining to Smith that that was the funny way of calling for hot Scotch. Smith made s inental memorandum of the witti- cism, and 2 couple of nights later, finding that he bad an exposition of thirst come upon him, entered a saloon and said unto the presiding genius: “I guess a little Prairie du Chien'll be about the thing this sort of weather.” “A little what?"” repeated the barkeeper. A little Prairie du Chien,”’ “Prairic du_ Chian— what in thunder’s that? O, I beg your pardon,” said Smith, confusedly, while a warm blush broke out all over him, *I mean gome Green Bay—strong-and hot, and don’t put any mutmeg or spice in it "« 01" said the barkeeper, “something hot; that’s what you want, is it? Bourbon or Scotch{” * Hot Scotch, of course;” replied Smith. “Hot Scotch—that’s it. Oshxosh—hot Scotch, don’t you see? - I knew it was some place up in Wis- consin. O, yes, to be sure. Oshkosh.” Then he made the barkeeper take somncthing himself, and, when he went out, the barkeeper whistled a few bars of a popular air and tapped his fore- ‘head significantly by way of expressing his ad-, miration for the massive mind of the great bumorist. OGDEN-AVENUE IMPROVEMENTS. The Opden-Avenue Improvement Association met yesterday afternoon in the oflice_of the New York Life_Insurance Company, No. 174 LaSalle street, Mr. John Crawford in the chair, and Mr. H. M. Garlick, Secretary. The Com- mittee which had been appointed to see about m:!usflge of the Chicago & Millington Rail- road reported that they had seen the attorneys of the Richmond estate, and that those attor- neys were unwilling to grant a right-of-way through the estate. Therefore, condemnation proceedings had been commenced. The Com- imittee to sce about sidewalks reported that the Douglas-Park Commissioners had gficed to lay a sidewalk through that park immediately. Tlhe Committee to see about paving reported that thgy had examined figures in the City Clerk’s and the Public Works offices, and had found that the contractors had not been properly paid for the work already done on Szdcn avenue. A more complete investigation will be made. The Committee appointed to see about a line of stages to run in connection with the O[T'den avenue norse~m_llw;}; asked for fur- ther time. It was granted. The property-own- crs intend that a single track shall be laid to the town of Crawford via Douglas Park and Lawn- dale. The Association meets again next ‘Wednesday at 2 oclock p. m., in the office of the New York Life Insurance Company. THE WRONG CUSTOMER. A LESSON WITH A MORAL FOR LADY CLERES. The other day an old man entered a dry-goods store on West Madison street, and meekly paus- ed before the counter presided over by a statu- esque young woman, who puts on more majesty for $7 a weck than Juno could have afforded for twice the money before the War, when. things were much cheaper than they are now. He wait- ed for threc and a half minutes till she had coaxed a refractory hair tolie straight, and then came sailing towards him with the grace of & whole flock of swars, then, respectfully cleaning her nails, waited to hear what he had to say. “Have you any ribbon, miss?? said the old man, timidly. ‘The young lady followed with her eyes a lady who hnurcncd to be passing the window , made amental appraisement of the lady’s costume, 2ud a rough estimate of the number of yards of stuff it took to malke her dress, resolved wward- 1y to have hers cut straighter ‘down the sides and fuller in froat, and then gracivusly answer- ed: “Sir?? ‘The old man was somewhat discouraged, but did not show it, and humbly repeated his ques- tion, % Yes, of course,” replied the lady, adding Kindly; * this isw’t a butcher’s shop or a tin-| smith’s, and when people want ribbons they usually o to a dry zoods store. That is,” she added, pleasantly, *unless they are idiots.” “*Thank you, miss,” responded the customer, abjectly; *will you please show me some” The young lady heard him, but she heeded not. Her eyes were with her mind, and that was far away. She wes slowly passing in review the legding incidents and 1nost thrilling scenes of thé storv “Irenc’s Vengeance, or The Dis- carded Daughter-in-Law,” which will be cou- cluded in the next number of Zhe Weelly Slush- bucket, and woudering whether Irene would take poison, or marry the Count, or kill the Count, &nd retire to a nunoery. Returning to mun- dane things, she sald, with a feeble show of in- terest: “What sort? About how wi®:? What for? About what price?”” Then she went off into avother trance, con- sidering what theatre she would go to if ner fel- low asked her; and what she would take for supper if he invited ber after the performance; and whether the fried oysters would make her very bilious; next day. Finally she gave some slius of returning animation, and Jistened af- fably as the old man eaid: “Just show me a few, and Il pick out what'll sorter suit the old ‘womau.” The young lady, with freezing contempt, re- plicd, mimicking the old man’s accent to perfec- tion: * Hadn’t you better git hum and send the old woman or some one that kindersorter knows what she wants, eh?” “Sartin, sartin, Miss,”” meekly replied the old man. “Mornin’, miss; sorry to have put ye to so much trouble,” and he tirned away. At that moment the door opened and the stern mavager entered the store. He did mot seem to recognize any one, and was haughtily advancing up the aislc between the shawl and rug and underclothing departments when he caught sight of the old man. In an instant his demcanor was changed and, bowing vbsequious- 1y to the venerable stranger, he said: - “ Good morning, sir. Itrust this informal jnspection of your business has shown that we, your euployes, are active in your_service and Taithful to the trust you repose in us. This way, honored sir; Mr. Hopper, carry a chair to 1y oflice; and Adonis Happer,'&q., intermitted winking ~ a1 the young lady, bound- ed over the counter and _trotted away nimbly on his meniul errand. When he returned he said to the young lady, in reply to her question, *Who is the old man ¥ *“Q, that’s the new Tycoon. He's bought out the whole establishment, They say he’s worth $7,000,000. Widower. His first™ wife’ was a clerk in a store that treated hiw civily Tor him- self alone, and he married her and gave hera $17,000 set of diamonds, and as for dresses: Lord! her bill must have been 3 thousand a month, ] say she was tlic very image of you. Guess you’ve made an impression on him. Be sure you invite us all to the wed- ding.” » A cold shudder ran down that young womau from her chignon to her panier, and she turned deadly pale in the substrata of her face. But she was a woman, and_soon recovered her self- possession, and when the obsequious manager ushered the new proprietor round and intro- duced him to the clerks she had rallied suffti- ciently to say: 1 trust you will excuse me, sir, for my in- nocent deception of this morning. 'The fact is, 1 had revognized you 2nd put on towards you a demesnor wholly. at variance with my usual conduct. T feared that if 1 were as courteous to you as I always am to customers you- might think Tewas actuated by interestedand uuworthy motives.” Then drupping her voice she added: ““Hau I known of your irreparable Joss 1 fear that my sympatby with you in your deep afflic- tion would have prevented me from carrying out my little comedy.” THE STENCHES. TBIAL OF SOME ALLEGED OFFENDERES. Several of the rendering men came in fora small slice of retribution yesterday. It will be remembered that half-a-dozen owners of slaughtering and rendering establishments were cited to appear before Summerfield for violation of the city ordinances. Of the number thus served, James Turner procured a continuance until Monday at 2 p. m. The others secured a change of venue to Justice D'Wolf, and went ‘his office immediately for trial. t‘O'J‘hlse %rs%ecla&c called was that of John O'Mal- ley. B{[(c}zael C. Cailaghan, one of the Maror'u‘ staff of police, siore that he knew Mr. O'Mal- Jey's place. It was a slaughtering-house on Qutinn street, near Archer avenue and Healey Siough. Besides slaughtering, the proprietors rendered there,—they rendered tallow. He was there on the 12th inst., when he saw the tanks, which were filled with guts and tainted meats, which smelled so that he could scarcely stand. It made him heave-up. r.'McGearn was there also, and he heaved-up. On the 13th they went there again, and saw the same things. There appeared to be maggots in the meat, also. On tgc edge of-the slongh, about thirty or forty feet off, they saw heaps of manure, blood, and scraps of refuse, which colored the water. Pieces of meat and manure were in the water, and there was a little current in the water, which carried out the blood and refuse. Some of the pieces had floated off as far as 100 feet. He was not sccustomed to be around slaughter- ing-houses. Mr. Henry McGearn was a witness. He visited the establishment of O’Malley on the 11th inst., and saw there offal, rotten sausage, ham-bones, and scraps of fatma “‘3 decomposed state. He saw dead magrots. One of the rendering tanks was about half-filled, and had & most ob- noxious smell. The slough in the rear was floating with rotten meat and manure. Oct. 12 he again went to the rendering house and found it in the'same condition, being so bad as to make Mr. Callaghan “sick to his stomach.” Oct. 13he found the same stinking material lying around that bad been there the two_ pre- vious visits. He visited It again between 8and 10 o’clock p. m., at which time they were ren- dering the offcnsive stufl. Richard Cole knew the defendant’s premises. He had discovered an offensive smell there often. His residence was sbout 100 feet dis- tance from the slaughtering-house, and he got the smellsin his family circle. At night the | smells were worse than in the day time. Mr. McDermott described Healey Slough as a small branch flowing into the South Branch of the Chicago River. The slongh was being filled up by Mr. Tarner. J. B. Dickinson had visited the premises of Mr. O'Malley. On the 13thinst. he found there seraps of sausages, old hums, and other spoiled meats, which he had been informed came from. the markets. He found the tanks open, and a a terrible smellemanating from them. Frank Salter lived abouta block from the slaughtering-house. The stenches came into his store like regular customers, and were more frequent when the wind was one-quarter west by sou’west. Mr. J. Sherwin bad been a renderer for eight- eenor twenty years in Chicago, and from his experience he thought that offensive smells could be avoided with proper care. Mr. O"Malley, the defendant, testified that he had been away from the city ten days, and during_ his absence the offensive matter com- plained of had accumulated. He thought there was no stench from the tanks—it came from the smoke. He caleulated to build his chimney twenty feet higher,and the neighbors would have 1o further causc of complaint. Prosecuting-Attorney Boyden catled attention to the city ordinances” beuring on the subject, and the Court ended the case by fining the de- fendant $50. SHOENEMAN BROS. The case of Shoeneman Bros. was next called. Henry McGearn said that the place of Shocne- man was on Salt street and Healy Slough. He went there on the11th, and saw there horns and white maggots by the million. The air was cx~ tremely offensive. The yard swasfull of maggots, cracking under his fcet'as he walked along. James T. Healy lived G0O or 700 feet from Shoeneman’s l‘l:lam:. He had got bad smells from that neighborliood frequently. E. 0. Cole had 2 shop on Archer avenue near- 1y half 2 mile from Shoeneman’s. He had oc- casion to pess the rendering-house almost daily, and when the wind was favorable he got power- ful scents. Several other witnesses were examined, and the defendant was fined the same g5 O’Maley. THE CITY-HALL. The Committee onMarketsis called to meetin the City Clerk’s office to-morrow afternoon at 3 o'clock. = City-Engincer Chesbrough left the city Friday evening for a ten days’ sojournat the East and the Centennial. The Mayor yesterday visited the crib and took to the isolated inhabitants of that wooden isl- and some furniture wherewith to adorn and ren- der comfortable their new house. ‘There have lately been complaints that prom- inent saloon-kecpers were without licenses. Prominent among such were C. M. Brennan and KirchhofE. The police take sll such matters in hand and will sce to it. **The boys** of the Comptroller’s office have prepared a surprise for Mr. Farwell, who is ex- pected home to-morrow. The surprise consists of carpets obtained from the Heath Department to cover the floorsof two private olfices of the Comptroller’s quarters. The improvement is great. A The Comptroller will open bids to-morrow for the purchase of the unoccupied real estate be- longing to the city. The advertisement calls for onc-fourth cash and the balance in one, two,and three years' time. The list of property to be sold has been Leretofore published. . ‘There is rejoicing in the Law Department over the city’s success in the large cases recent- ly decided by thc Supreme Court, and for which the officers of the Law Department pre- pared the bricls. It is not necessary to remark that the city has been successful. The 10110\\1‘%%: building permits were issued yesterday: Wilson Packing Company, a two- story stable, 20x70 fect, No. 166 South Clinton street; Thomas Scanlon, a two-story dwelling, 22x43 feet, on Oakley avenue, near Taylor street; Joseph Euastman, sixteen three-story stores, 22x60 feet cach, on West Madison street, between Elizabeth and Ada streets;eAld. J. T. Rawleigh, a three-story store, 25x50 feet, corner of Peoria and Monroc streets; Kreppahn & Son, a three-story store, 25x62 feet, No. 1262 State strect; F. H. Herdman, a two-story dwelling, 25x54 feet, on West Adams, near Laflin street; Mr. Walker, a two-story sta- ble (carriaze repository), 40x145 feet, Nos. 249 and 251 State street. THE COUNTY BUILDING. The Turner forgery case is to succeed the Sullivan murder trial in the Criminal Court. The Grand Jury still continues in session, at an expense of $4S per day to the tax-payers. If its service is to be estimated by its visible work, it has been an expensive body. The motion for a new triel in the Lightfoot insanity case came up 1y|:stcrdny, but the hear- ing was continued until to-morrow. The mo- tion is based upon alleged erroneous rulings and instructions of the Court. The Buckingham claim against the Walker estate, amounting to $37,000, was decided in the County Court yesterday in favor of the claim- ant, allowing him $14,232.53. The defense took an appeal to the Circuit Court, and the claimant to the Superior, each filing bonds ju the amount of $200. The County Collcctor yesterday disposed of considerable peoperty delinguent for city special assessmeunts. On the th inst. the tax-fight- ers, who have appealed their cases and lost in 1873-74, and "%, will be called upon to suffer. Such cases are quite numerous, and the Collect- or anticipates a rich harvest. CRIMINAT. Kate Rafferty is the most inveterate drunkard intown. Shewus before Justice Summerficld yesterday morning, and was saluted with a $100 fine, which was suspended on condition that she leave town. Last night she was taken in again on the same old charee, and she will surely go out to the House of Correction for a good {nng time. B _Charles Ransford, a fellow who, for some time, has been mnotorious in connection with several bogus constables, was arrested yester- day by Deputy-Supt. Dixon upon a charge of forgery, alleged to bave been committed some ?m:i :L::u.d The mstci “fi chauge\! to Justice 'oote, and was continued unti t Fri $1,000 bail. nexFocarin On Friday afternoon Samuel Strauss, a lawyer who recently went into bankruptcy, was before Justice Hawill, charged with larceny as bailee, in converting to his ‘own use $1,000 placed in bis hands by a client for iuvestment. The ex- amination resulted in the holding of Strauss to bail in $1,200 for his appearance before the Criminal Court. The crowd at the Exposition last night brought out all the thlnvexsp?md ‘scay ;;raceusg u: town. The detectives made hay while the sun shone, and captured the following: Duval Mc- Nery, Edmund Clarke, Michael Doyle, John Kerns, John Williams, Edmund Clarke, Joe Dolan, Edward Jones. Maoy of thesc were wanted on specific charges.

F. Brede some ten days ago, $600 to Criminal Court; Joseph Hunt, vagrant, six months in the House of Correction. Detective Flynn, of the West Madison Street Station, was abroad in the South Division last night, and of course the visit resulted in much ood. Fortunately he came upon a crowd of ellows for whom he had been searching for some time, and summauinithc aid of Detect- ives Heinzman and Jordan from Central Station, he made_the following captures: Jacob Jack- son and Thomas Barrett, who are wanted for various burglaries in the West Division.” The former was implicated in the - Field, Leiter & Co. silk robbery of some six weeks ago, and the latter, who became notorious as one of the persons sus- pected of having shot Officer Koenig, has but Tecently been released from the House of Cor- rection. With these two were also captured John Meany and John Johnson, alias Bougee, both of whom are equally noted desperadoes. ANNOUNCEMENTS.

T., Oct. 21.—The Indians are troublesome in the Black Hills of Wyoming, back of Cheyenne and Laramie City, getting quite bold, and coming within twenty-five miles of these towns, if not nearer. Yesterday a scouting party of volunteers, under Cept. Bramel, went into the Hills to see what conld be found near this place, and on the same after- noon Gen. Reynolds sent 110 men from Fort Russell to scout necar the Chug Water, Horse Creek, and North Laramie River. Col. Brackett is fitting-out a_battalion of re- cruits at Fort Saunders for service in Montana for that portion of the Second Cavalry serving in that country. Private Tasker, Company K, Second Cavalry, was killed in & skirmish with Indians near the Chug Water a few days since. Several other men have lately been killed in this scction of the country by the savages. A'meeting of citizens was held here night be- fore lastat which 8 volunteer company was organized for service against them. The num- ber of Indiuns mear by is inconsideruble, but they have done a great deal of damage in steal- ing stock and murdering white men. A MODEST REQUEST. ‘WASHINGTON, D.

YELLOW FEVER. 8avaxxam, Oct. 21.—Total number of inter- ments to-day, cleven, of which five were from yellow fever. The Supreme Court Holds that Chicago Is Not Liable in the Turner Case, — Public School Property Cmot. Be Tazed in Any Manner for Muni- cipal or Other Purposes. . No Basis for Compensation Where the Property Is Neither Taken nor Damaged. Yesterday afternoon the City Law Department received by express from thg Sapreme Court of this State decisions on impoftant cases which were appealed to that Court. The cases were: The City of Chicago vs. Joseph Barbian; The City of Chicago vs. The People ex rel. H. B. Miller & Co.; The City of Chicago vs. James Turner. IN THE TURNER CASE the opinion was delivered by Judze Scholfield. The case was that-the City Council passed an ordinance giving all the slaughtering of the city to Reid & Sherwin, and then the police force, by the Mayor’s order," procceded to en- force the ordinanceand close up all other houses. Turner’s bgl:css was completely brolen up, and he was atedly arrested and fined in police courts. “~He appealed to the Sp- urt, which held that the ordinance reme ?nu void, as it created a monopoly. Turner began business again and brought suit for damages sustained by the enforcement of the ordinance. The Circuit Court (Judge Tree) awarded him $12,000. The city n‘fl:cnled, and the Supreme Court has now decided, as in the before-mentioned case, that the ordinance was void absolutely and the Council had no power to pass it; it conferred no rights and gave no liabilities upon the municipality; that it was ultra vires, and hence that by vh;tbx;le“al any t:.tsi done by any persons, no respons y was on the }n’nunylcjwpality. That the acts of the offi- cers were simply as if done when no such ordi- nance was in existence, and hence the plaintiff could not recover any damage against the city for the injuries complained of. PUBLIC SCIIOOL PROPERTY NOT TAXABLE. In the case of The City vs. The People ex rel. Henry B. Miller, the County Court rendered a judgment against certain lands for taxes of 1871, which lands are held by, the city exclusive- 1y for the use of tne public ‘schools and were held by the foreclosure of mortgages taken to securc loans of money arising from the sale of the Sixteenth Section of Tuwnshig 39, donated by the General Government for school purposes. ‘fine lands were not leased by the city nor used with a view to profit, and there are ne school- houses on them. By the sixth section, clause 1,of theact of Congress donating said Sec. 16, it was provided that when such section had been sold or otherwise disposed of, other lands equivalent thereto and as contign— ous as may be shall be granted to the Btate for the use of the inhabitants of such township. Sec. 16 was sold, the money was loaned for school purp3ses, and by the foreclosure of mort- guges to secure the loan of the same the title ‘Wasacquired by the city,but for puolicschool pur- poses. By an act approved Jan. 15, 1825, the Auditor acd Secrctary of State were appointed Commissionersof theSchool Fund, and on the22d of January, 1529, the Legislature passed anact au- thorizing the County Commissioners to appoint the Schoo! Commissioners in their respective counties, and the same act authorized them, in the mode therein prescribed, to sell the Six- teenth Section and loan the money received therefor and to pay the interestreceived there- on to the Trustees of Schools for their respec- tive townships. Thus the law has remeined. No act of the General A has ever grant- and faea irre- ous. They have S budies to “haudle and control the fund for the use of the people. But that bod las not parted with the power to control the fund in any mode they may choose for the usc of the schools. They can transfer its control to oth- ers than those previously in charge of it, if they see fit. The increase of the fund should be exvended in the support of schools. Man- ner and agency employed may be, at all times, controlled or changed by the State at pleasare. The State is virtually 8 Trustee for the fund for the use of the people, and the municipalities and officers are but the agencies employed by the State in the execution of the trust. The State bas the power to resume the fund, and uso it for the purpuses designated by the act of Congress. is being so, the State i8 the real owner of the fund to be beld in trust for the pnr?cses of the grant. Art.3, Sec. 2, of the Constitution of 1870, provides that all land, moneys, or other property donated, grant- ed, or received for school, college, seminary, or unlversit urposes, and the proceeds thereof, shall be faithfully applied to the objects for which such gifts or grants were made. This provision includes the lands and money em- braced in the common_school fund; also the college, seminary, and university lands and funds in the hands of or under the control of the S8tate. The Legislature has no right or constitutional power to appropriate any part of this fund to efray the expenses of the State, counties, or other municipal bodies, or those created tor school purposes. They can neither do this directly nor indirectly. “They can take no part of it by taxation. That would be an unconstitutioual perversion of the fund to that extent. This school property is none of it subject to taxation. ‘Therefore no public-school property can be taxed either by the State, county, or municipality, and can be used only for school purposes. The decision of the Circuit Court below is reversed: NORTII STATE STREET. Judege Scholficld delivered the opinionin the case “Thbe City of Chicago vs. Joseph Bar- bian.” It wasan appeal from the Superior Court of Cook County, which awarded dam- ages amounting td $404,582; which damages were sustained by reason of the widening of North State street. 1t was not pretended that any partition of the relator’s prospects had been actually taken or damaged by therespondent. The only question which the Supreme Court found it nccessary to examine was, *“Did the relator have a vested right in the order or judg- ment of the Court, which was not defeated by the respondent’s discontinuing the contemnplat- ed improvemnent, and failing to take or damage the relator’s property, as was the case?”’ Under the é)rcsum Constitution the rclator was en- titled tohaye compensation made to him be- fore his property could be taken or damaged, and therefore no judgment or order of Court of binding force ~ could be entered in advance of the taking or damaging of property. The judgment to be rendered on the ver(filut of the jury was conditional, and was a sufficient judgment of condemnation, and when payment was madc of the amount of the finding. No right cither to take or damage the property vested in the applicant for coudemnation until such payment was made. When the party scek- ing condemnation requires a vested right in the property, the owner bhas a vested right in the compensation; but since no vested right can be acquired in the property without the owner’s consent until compensation is paid, it must fol- Jow there can be no vested right in the compea- sation until after the mou:fi.is paid. Assum- ing the proceedings to be simply a regular condemnnation under the statute, the property- owner’s :‘fiht under his judgment is to have his compensation before his property is taken or damaged. Wherelore, if itiis never taken or maced, there is vo basis_whereon to rest his clnim for compensation. Inthe present case there is no difficulty whatever in determining that the judgment "contemplated by the statute is not cnforcible by mandamus where the con- demnation proceedings have been discontinued gl:l the pr:;peny %1 t._llgg n:l:.;ltor has b%en peither ken nor damaged.
